You are correct sir, it's up inside the hull and hard to see.

If you on shore, get a mirror and and flashlight.

Crawl under the boat to the keel.

Put mirror at a 45 degree angle to the bottom of the hull, up against the keel and shine the light in the mirror.

This should light up the keel pocket and give you a view up inside that pocket.

The keel pin is approximately 12 to 18 inches back from the front of the keel pocket and about 8 inches from the bottom of the hull.

Inside the boat look in the forward seat and that big black rubber disk on the port side of the of the cabin floor.

Thanks
